Hello all,

I wanted to share with you that vitamin C at 1000mg a day has basically eliminated my gastritis. I was on carafate on and off for a long time, and this is the best I've felt in about a year. I'm wondering if anyone else has similar experiences.

I found a few studies online that show a connection between vitamin C and the eradication of H Pylori, so perhaps there is something to it.

Thanks for sharing that. I get stomach pains off and on and I believe that it's gastritis. So I will keep that in mind...I have a question though, can that much vitamin C also be bad for GERD though (the acidity?)?
